YOURSAY | ‘The coronavirus does not recognise race, religion nor politics.’
The prime minister has spoken; he has announced the country’s plan towards curtailing the spread of Covid-19 so that the situation does not worsen and those already affected can recover.
We are all equally at risk and for that reason at least, should be supportive of efforts to manage the spread. It is good to know students are placed on extended school holidays to avoid contracting the virus. It was a very bold step by the government to stop all religious congregations and functions.
What does "restriction" mean? Some say "barred" or "banned" from travelling, but some say "restricted", which implies overseas travel still allowed but subject to conditions and limitations. Which is it? Further measures will be announced in due course. The entire operation is under the oversight of the National Security Council . A hotline will be operational from today.
